商品簡介
Originally published in 1849, On the Duty of Civil Disobedience is one of the most influential essays in American political thought. In this short yet powerful piece, Henry David Thoreau asserts that individuals must not permit governments to overrule their morals, especially when laws perpetuate injustice.
This modern translation preserves the defiant clarity of Thoreau's voice while adapting the language for accessibility without losing the weight of its original urgency. It is a fiery defense of liberty, individual conscience, and nonviolent resistance that remains just as relevant in the modern era.
What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation:
- A Blueprint for Peaceful Resistance - Understand how Thoreau's ideas laid the foundation for civil rights leaders like Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr.
- Moral Clarity in an Unjust World - Explore why moral obligation can outweigh blind obedience to the state
- A Timeless Political Voice - Read a bold argument that continues to inspire social change across centuries
- Accessible, Impactful Language - Modernized for contemporary readers while preserving the fire of Thoreau's original words
More than a political tract, this is a call to awaken your inner rebel-guided not by rage, but by reason and moral courage.
